Do you wear a tie to work? (1 Viewer)

[cstu]

At least a couple days a week. When we are meeting with clients or at business functions like a chamber of commerce lunch. I've never felt like I was being choked but I don't have a big short fat guy neck.

I'm all good with dressing better than the vast majority of the office. Would probably not like it if everyone wore a coat and tie.

FixedFinding dress shirts that fit in the neck, but don't have sleeves made for gorillas, is impossible.

You got me man. I'm 6'1", 170. Tailored slim shirts work like a charm right off the rack.

Do you even lift?

I need to send you to my girl at Knot Standard downtown. She'll do a fitting and have a shirt made for you for free as a sample. Shirts after that are only $130 and are the best shirts ever. EVER.

For $130, the shirt better have a felatio setting. I can buy like 10 polo shirts for that.

I think ties will eventually fade away. Millenials seem to be not so stuck on a dress code.

Suit and tie is never going to go away for lawyers in court. The millennial lawyers I know seem to have embraced it and brought a better sense of style to the courtroom. I like it. Putting on a suit and tie gets me in the right frame of mind for the arena.

Wear a suit in meetings with some IBM, Pfizer, Novozymes, Lord, etc....big guys. Usually the people we deal with are in jeans. I wear a hat and jeans to work almost early, can wear shorts if I want. It is all fading away what business dress is because what you look like shouldn't matter, what you can do should.

Also, I was meeting a client at my office and forgot and had jeans and a hat on. I looked him up on LinkedIn and he was from Penn's Wharton's school of business. I was like damn. Tucked in my shirt, took of my hat. He came in untucked with a hat, LOL. He was in his 40's.

Used to wear one every day. Now, maybe once a week. I wear a suit usually.

 

[hagmania]

Yes, and pretty much contained to intra-department interaction. Bleh.

Every day----

 

[belljr]

Not sure the last time I wore a tie

 

[Gator Shawn]

Worked from home last 13 years. I rarely wear pants.

In my current job I am the boss and choose to wear a tie, I like it. No one else wears one and that is no problem for me.

Ditto.

His body is 4' 6." His head is a foot and a half (he's giving himself an inch).

One day people will laugh at it. Like a top hat or powdered wig.

Pretty sure my boss wears a suit and tie while gardening. He thinks it's 1880.

The only time I've worn a tie to work was when I wore a suit as my Halloween costume.

IT here, jeans and t-shirt every day.

Average twice a year... for a total of about 2 hours annually.

Never a tie - maybe a sport coat at a convention or a high dollar dinner.

Normal outfit is jeans, work boots, dark polo shirt. I shave every 3-5 days.
